ER DISTANCE

Find out how far apart ER's are from Urgent Cares

Problem: Too many people are using ER's instead of Urgent Cares.

Hypothesis

The ED's that are Further Away from Urgent Cares get more use

What To Do

Find out if the distance between ED's and Urgent Cares drives usage

What we need

• all the ED's addresses
• all the Urgent Care Addresses
  • possible source: https://data-cdphe.opendata.arcgis.com/datasets/CDPHE::cdphe-health-facilities/explore
• All the Usage Data

Steps

• Calculate distance between points
• list usage
• compare distance X usage
